the perception is that the United States does not mind working with anti-democratic regimes if it suits its foreign policy interests.

South Africa has drifted closer to the anti-Western camp.

I think you since have backtracked on that to a more balanced approach, but I do not think there is any doubt that Vucic incited the boycott of the Kosovo elections.

The government of Kosovo must engage upon the implementation of an Association of Serb-majority Municipalities, as it committed to do 10 years ago.

This is, potentially, more dangerous than Ukraine to NATO, should this violence spread.

The purpose of this hearing is to discuss U.S. policy toward Europe and NATO, as well as U.S. and allied support to Ukraine.

I would continue to urge you to do whatever we can for Sweden to get them into NATO.

Having ATACMS in their arsenal would simply enable the Ukrainians to target almost all of their own territory currently occupied by the Russians.

For the first 15 months, Ukraine has fought valiantly and courageously in defense of their freedom against illegal Russian aggression.

I oppose this amendment. My resolution calls for the Administration to provide ATACMS to Ukraine immediately.

President Biden's delay has cost countless Ukrainian lives and only dragged this war out longer.

Sadly, the pointless delay in providing ATACMS follows a consistent theme throughout the entirely of this conflict.
